The long ships are awaiting me
I’m setting sail to fulfill my destiny: for the rising sun hath promised me
That the blood of foes shall anoint my sword!
I heed the call of Fatherland
Sung to the tone of battle horns!
By Odin’s spear I swear this day
I’ll make them fear the sound of my name!
“My Father’s Gods will welcome me
To Valhalla’s halls if I should fall…
And there I’ll feast as Einherjer
Until the dawn of dread is come…â€
“Away, away! To Asgard fly
With Valkyries in the vanguard
Across the sky and over clouds
The furious host doth hunt tonight…â€
